PUREPLUS 5 Micron 10" x 4.5" Pleated Sediment Filter

Quick overview

The PUREPLUS 5 micron pleated sediment filter is a 10 inch by 4.5 inch replacement cartridge designed for whole house use on well water. It combines a large pleated surface and 3D woven filter cloth to capture sand, rust and visible sediment while maintaining good flow, making it a practical choice for households seeking clearer water without heavy pressure loss. For best results change the cartridge every 3 to 6 months depending on water quality.

Tech specs

• Name: PUREPLUS 5 Micron 10" x 4.5"
• Type: Pleated sediment filter
• Size: 10" x 4.5"
• Capacity: up to 30000 gallons

What stands out

PUREPLUS emphasizes filtration area and durability. The pleated design gives more filtration surface than many same sized cartridges, so it traps more particles while keeping flow strong. Certification to food grade standards and BPA free materials adds reassurance about contact safety, and manufacturer testing is cited for pressure and durability. Note that filtration lifetime varies with sediment load, so heavily sandy wells will shorten interval between changes.

Usage tips

Replace the cartridge every 3 to 6 months for average household conditions, and inspect more often if you notice reduced flow or discoloration. It fits standard 10" x 4.5" housings, so swapping is straightforward in most heavy duty filter systems. It’s a great fit if you want a washable pleated option that balances capacity and flow, and it may not suit you if your water needs ultra-fine filtration beyond 5 micron.
